    TMC for me and soon hopefully. I talked to them again and I'm still in they just needed some more information. Things move slow and they are selective but that is fine with me. I want a quality employer with quality employees. I work hard, rise to challenges and am a natural leader. I'm hoping those qualities mesh with this company as well as I think they will.

    Yeah I believe I'm kinda liking them myself for the same reasons I've worked hard my whole life from factory to construction and so on I don't mind working hard it makes you feel better at the end of the day when you starting 28th them

    What are you wanting in the way of hometime? That could be a deciding factor between the two as I believe Melton wants you to stay out a little bit longer.
